When exploring new platforms and protocols, there's one golden rule worth repeating: never connect your primary wallet. Instead, use a separate burner wallet with limited funds for testing and interacting with unfamiliar sites. This way, your main holdings stay secure. It's a simple but effective layer of protection for your long-term crypto assets.

Amazing, I've been using the burner wallet trick for a long time, or I would have gone broke from a rug pull already.

Really? The habit of using a burner wallet is super important... How many people connect directly to their main wallet for convenience and end up being drained by a seemingly harmless dapp?

Yeah, really. I've been using the burner wallet setup for a long time, and I never touch unfamiliar contracts with my main wallet.

ngl, burner wallet advice is just basic hygiene at this point... yet somehow people still ape their entire portfolio into untested contracts lmao
